diamond princess 30 march 2009 bejing to bangkok

[paa5481]

Hi
Lets start the cruise now. Who's going? We are mid 50's from Philadelphia. This will be the our first asian cruise and 5th on Princess. What an itinerary! We are looking for ideas about airfare and land add ons for Beijing/Xian and Bangkok. Drop us a line. We would love to hear from others. This is going to be a great cruise, the ship is already wait listed for this one and the two previous cruises.

Hi Pete
Sorry It has taken me so long to answer. Good to hear from someone that is going. This will be our 4 cruise with princess and first to Asia. I am still shopping for air fare. So far it looks like $2,500 for 2 from jfk to bejing and return from Bangkok. We are from philadelphia. Im also looking at a 7 day ground portion with 4 in peking and 3 in xian. Have you had any luck with air or precruise?
